The Adansi tribe is the smaller of the two tribes inhabiting the Ashanti Region. The capital of the Adansi tribe is at Fomena. An Adansihene (king of Adansi) is still designated. The Adansi tribe has seven paramountcies namely the capital, Fomena, New Edubiase, Ayaase, Akrokyere (Akrokerri),Akrofuom, Bodwesango and Dompoase.

It is the eight most populous settlement in Ghana, in terms of population, with a population of 175,043 people.() It is the largest city of the Adansi people, a Twi -speaking Akan tribe that has been enslaved by the powerful Asante tribe to the north for many centuries due to the Obausi goldmine and goldfields. Situated on the railway line from Kumasi to Sekondi, it is known for its Obuasi Gold Mine, now one of the ten largest in the world, gold having been mined on the site since at least the seventeenth century.
